i know. im hoping to get a raise here shortly. im only makin $14/hr at the moment but i do alot of o/t. 11 hour shifts monday - thursday and 8 hours on friday
what is with the crazy asian mothers driving the mini vans. i was leaving my brothers g/f's place after picking him up and im doing a little under the speed limit as the roads are slick right now. and this mini van starts riding my ass. i don't budge as i don't get intimidated by that sorta thing so she quickly changes lanes and speeds up to get in front of me and then after she passes me she quickly gets back into my lane. and then an astro van comes barrelling down the same hill which is all ice. stupid ass people. end rant.
disclaimer - this is nothing against any asians on this site just the lady driving the mini van.

I know the production lines where I work always seem to need people... Don't worry, you'd never be working directly with me since I'm up in my cozy little cube. But, they're specifially looking for people with shear/brake, welding, or shipping/receiving experience. If anyone is interested, send me a pm and I can give you more details.

So nice when you can put on 3 days of insurance, and not have to pay for it.

If you are willing to RELOCATE.....check out Fort McMurray. I started at $38/hour as a Process Operator with only 3 years experience.
A brand new operator will make around $25 - $28 / hour to start, but you can move up the pay scale rather quickly.
PLUS....you can always commute.
That is because some people are STUPID. I had a friend up here who bought a Celica GT and was heading down to Edmonton when one of her tires blew apart. She had WINTERS on all summer!!!!!! She did not even know it, she bought the car like that!! So my guess is those with the summer tires on the SS S/C have NO IDEA they are summer only tires.
